I've always wanted to be a screenwriter. Pretty hard to break in when you live in Maryland, though. I'm straight outta UG and just decided to take a few years off before LS to make sure I really want to do it, so maybe I'll actually pursue this dream. Anybody know any CAA agents?? haha

Three careers I would love to have. Vinter (think Sparky Marquis), Automotive Journalist (think Ezra Dyer), Wine Reviewer (think Robert Parker.) When I was a little kid I wanted to be the next Domingo at the opera house. Then puberty kicked in and now I sound like George McFly from back to the future. In a cloud of smoke my tenor dreams went up as my balls came down.

My SO is an admissions counselor. It can be fun, but you spend the bulk of your time answering questions like "Have I been accepted [at your school] before?" (completely serious, happened the other day) and "How do I apply?" (Go to commonapp.org) "...can you spell that?"

1) NBA star. At 14, I wanted to be like Mike. Now I want to be like Mike's lawyer!2) Hollywood movie star. At 22, I wanted to be like Will Smith. Now I want to be like Will Smith's lawyer.3) Musician/Singer (and movie star). At 25, I wanted to be like Usher. Now I want to be like Usher's lawyer.

1.) FBI agent. I came mighty close too (Honors Intern acceptance), until the background check. They don't seem to look kindly on applicants with criminal family members though. I understood their concerns, but they didn't feel fair at the time. 2.) Pilot. Colorblindness ended that one pretty quickly.

Author. Also, urban planner, although I may still sort of back-door into a similar career through environmental law. And I suppose writing is always an open option, although I'm no nearly as good at the actual creative writing part as I'd like to be. (I'm more into the big-picture plot and setting design.)
